Brown explained that many of these were counted several times, so that the actual number of per sons participating would not be that great. Supervised swimming was start ed at the beach June 7 and con tinued until Aug. 15. The condi tion of the river, because of late rains, remained good all season, and there has been no official condemnation of the water even to the present time. The water was tested at Intervals and found to be In good condition. However, precautionary measures were taken In that all regular swim mint! participants were reouired to have typhoid and diphtheria innocuiaiions. No life saving certificates were taught how to swim in supervised classes, said Brown. The class at tendance was not as constant as expected because of the relative ly cool summer season. No life saving certificates were given, as Brown, while consider ed by the recreation committee as a well qualified swimming di rector, did not have a Red Cross Life Saving certificate. The com mittee stated it expects to cor. rect this situation next year, as the Red Cross is planning to con duct a life saving course of In structions for adults prior to the start of swimming next summer. No Casualties At Beach There were no casualties at Templin Beach. The one drown ing this summer in the Umpqua river did not occur In connection with the swimming program, Brown reported.

Aug. 28 (,V The bitter dispute between Whlttaker Chambers and Alger Hiss over who is lying to con gressional spy probers may be cleared up in a court room.
